 Connecting The Power Input

This section describes the functionalities of the VPN Gateway’s components.

Upper Panel
The upper panel of the IVR-100 consists of one terminal block connector within two DC power inputs.
Figure 2-1 shows the upper panel of the IVR-100 VPN Gateway.

The Upper Panel of the IVR-300 series consists of two terminal block connectors.

• Green terminal block connector: Power 1, Power 2 input and relay alarm output
• Yellow terminal block connector: 2 digital input and 2 digital output

Figure 2-2 shows the upper panel of the IVR-300 / IVR-300W VPN Gateway.

The Upper Panel of the IVR-300FP series consists of two terminal block connectors.

• Green terminal block connector: Power 1, Power 2 input and relay alarm output
• Yellow terminal block connector: 2 digital input and 2 digital output

Figure 2-3 shows the upper panel of the IVR-300FP VPN Gateway.

Wiring the Power Inputs
The 6-contact terminal block connector on the top panel of VPN Gateway is used for two redundant power inputs. Please follow the steps below to insert the power wire.

When performing any of the procedures like inserting the wires or tightening the wire-clamp screws, make sure the power is OFF to prevent from getting an electric shock.

1. Insert positive and negative DC power wires into contacts 1 and 2 for POWER 1, or 5 and 6 for POWER 2.

Please make sure the input voltage is under the specification of the Security Gateway.

2. Tighten the wire-clamp screws for preventing the wires from loosening.

The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the range between 12 and 24 AWG.
PWR1 and PWR2 must provide the same DC voltage while operating with dual power input.

Grounding the Device
User MUST complete grounding wired with the device; otherwise, a sudden lightning could cause fatal damage to the device.

EMD (Lightning) DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

Wiring the Fault Alarm Contact
The fault alarm contacts are in the middle of the terminal block connector as the picture shows below. Inserting the wires, the Security Gateway will detect the fault status of the power failure or port failure, and then will form an open circuit. The following illustration shows an application example for wiring the fault alarm contacts.

1. The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the range between 12 and 24 AWG.
2. Alarm relay circuit accepts up to 24V, max. 1A currents.

Wi-Fi Antenna Installation (IVR-300W)

• Step 1: Fasten the two dual-band antennas to the antenna connectors on the front panel of the IVR-300W.
• Step 2: You can bend the antennas to fit your actual needs.

Hardware Installation

This section guides you to installing the VPN Gateway on the DIN-rail and wall. Basic knowledge of networking is assumed. Please read this chapter completely before continuing.
The installation procedures of the IVR-100 & IVR-300 series are the same as the ones shown below.

DIN-rail Mounting Installation

Wall-mount Plate Mounting

Side Wall-mount Plate Mounting

You must use the screws supplied with the wall-mounting brackets. Damage caused to the parts by using incorrect screws would invalidate your warranty.

Setup of the VPN Gateway

Requirements
Please confirm the following items before configuration:

1. Please confirm the network is working properly: It is strongly suggested to test your network connection by connecting your computer directly to ISP.
2. Suggested operating systems: Windows 10/11.
3. Recommended web browsers: Google Microsoft Edge/Chrome/Firefox.

Logging in to the VPN Gateway
Then refer to the steps below to configure the VPN Gateway:

• Step 1: Connect the IT administrator’s PC and VPN Gateway’s LAN port (port 1) to the same hub/switch, and then launch a browser to link the management interface address which is set to https://192.168.1.1 by default.
  
  The DHCP server of the VPN Gateway is enabled. Therefore, the LAN PC will get IP from the VPN Gateway. If user needs to set IP address of LAN PC manually, please set the IP address within the range between 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.254 inclusively, and assigned the subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.

• Step 2: The browser prompts you for the login credentials. (Both are “admin” by default.)
  Default IP address: 192.168.1.1
  Default user name: admin
  Default password: admin
  Default 2.4GHz SSID: PLANET_2.4G (for IVR-300W) Default 5GHz SSID: PLANET_5G (for IVR-300W)

The following web screen is based on the IVR-300W; the display of the IVR-100, IVR-300 and IVR-300FP is the same as that of the IVR-300W.
Please follow the wizard to do the first-time account modification.
The password must contain 8~31 characters, including upper case, lower case, numerals and other symbols.

After filling out the new account and password, the main screen appears as shown in Figure 4-3.

Figure 4-4: Web Main Screen
Now, you can use the Web management interface to continue the Security Gateway management or manage the Security Gateway by console interface. Please refer to the user’s manual for more.
Administrators are strongly suggested to change the default password and Wi-Fi SSID on the first login to safeguard system security.

1. For security reason, please change and memorize the new password after this first setup.
2. Only accept command in lowercase letter under web interface.

Recovering Back to Default Configuration

IP Address has been changed or admin password has been forgotten –
To reset the IP address to the default IP address “192.168.1.1” or reset the login password to default value, press the hardware reset button on the front panel for about 10 seconds. After the device is rebooted, you can log in the management Web interface within the same subnet of 192.168.1.xx.

The location of the reset button is the same for all the IVR-300 series.
